Filomena LaForgia: Advocating for Dean 5/25/2021

from Patricia Lemer: The Autism Detective · host Patricia Lemer

Filomena is a warrior mom. She despises labels, and refused to put her son in an autism box. When my book, Outsmarting Autism came out, she took some duct tape, covered up the word "autism" on the cover, and wrote the word "EVERYTHING"! She fought hard and strong to keep Dean in the "least restrictive environment." Once she learned about the Arrowsmith program, she was determined to get it into a school nearby. Listen in to learn about Arrowsmith and how advocacy can change the world for your child.
